ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Coat (clothing)

A coat is a piece of clothing that helps keep you warm when it's cold outside. It's like a big blanket that you can wrap around your body, but it's made to wear outside of the house.

Coats can come in different sizes, colors, and materials. Some are really fluffy and soft, while others are smoother and thinner. Some have buttons or zippers to close them, while others don't have anything and you just wear them open.

When it's cold outside, you put your coat on over your regular clothes to help keep you warm. It covers up your arms, chest, and back. Some coats even have a hood to cover your head and keep it warm too.

Coats are really important because if you don't wear one when it's cold outside, you might get sick! It's like having a shield against the cold weather. Plus, coats can be really stylish and make you look cool!
